Ballarat Wine Show 2009

Congratulations to all those who had success at the recent Ballarat Wine Show (11/9/09). In particular Tomboy Hill who took out the Max Loder Trophy for the third time! This trophy is sponsored by the Ballarat and District Vignerons Association and honours the contribution of Max Loder to both the local and Australian Wine Industry. The trophy is awarded for the best overall result with Chardonnay and Pinot Noir in the Regional classes.

In a smaller field than usual, there was a total of three silver and nine bronze medals awarded to Ballarat producers in the show. Each year, the number of medals and trophies from different wine shows continues to grow – reflecting the consistency of Ballarat Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.

The Ballarat Wine Show is organised each September by the Ballarat Agricultural and Pastoral Society Inc (Phone: (03) 5338 1877). For further detail on the contribution of  Max Loder to the Australian Wine Industry, please refer to our profile.
